DaVida Salabert is a Modern Day Priestess, Artivist performance artist, filmmaker and author, founder of the International Social Movement Jil Love Revolution. 

She's formerly known as Jordina Salabert, and Jil Love as her warrior name. DaVida decided to change her name after she endured so much loss in only one decade. Her beloved Twin Flame, Max, drowned in a pool on July 15th 2019, at the age of 30. It was one of the most devastating times of her life after both of her parents passed, first her Mom in July 2012, and her day on May 12th 2013. She was given the name of DaVida as the Life-Giver. 

Soon after her parents' physical death, DaVida had a vivid dream of her flying over her Grandma's country house and her parents were having a gathering like they used to while Davida was growing up. They both looked to DaVida above in the sky and then sent her telepathic messages that she was going to "Conquer" the world with her Art and Creativity. After that revelation she began her journey as a Priestess and Artivist with her world acclaimed social movement. 

Davida was ordained Priestess of Isis by her spiritual mother and mentor Lady Loreon Vigne at her temple in Northern california in October 2014. That day she remembered who she was and why she was back on this moment in time. 

Her unique style seamlessly fuses key elements of performing arts and activism to provoke and engage the general public, often inciting divisive discourse among fans and critics about her appearance. A photo of her artivist performance in solidarity with the independence of Catalonia was not only selected as one of the "Photos of the Day" by The Washington Post, but was finally chosen by The Wall Street Journal as one of their "Year in Photos 2014". Both Nation of Change and True Activism also selected their acting artivist rallies to raise the Western collective consciousness of the ongoing Palestinian genocide as No. 1. 

Her solo performance on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, covered with blood and rubble while holding a blown up baby doll and the sign: "Nothing to see here, just another dead Palestinian baby, keep moving" was copied and recreated worldwide by women of all religious and ethnic backgrounds. Her followers grew to 300k overnight, and she became a global inspiration for Palestinian Human Rights. She repeated with the even more renowned: "The Gaza Rubble and Bucket Challenge ''. Nobody in history has had such a world reaction with such innovatively creative street performance art.

In addition to these recent accomplishments, her unique artistic methods of passive resistance have been embraced by fellow activists and artists, inspiring thousands and spurring people to action. Jil Love was officially recognized by the City of Los Angeles for her efforts and accomplishments.

In 2016 she published her first book called 'We Are The Voices of The Unheard' which documents all her artivist protests to date. Her most viral international activism work in Latin America was on her birthday on March 4, 2017 in Mexico City, where she brought together 43 women to portray the pain and suffering of the mothers of the 43 Ayotzinapa students who disappeared on 26 September 2014. Jil created a procession through the Historic District using the Mexican folklore legend of ghost women who cry searching for their missing children. Television news and media from around the world covered the event and thousands of people around the world were suddenly informed of this tragedy that the Mexican government is silent. Jil's activism has the power of conscience with a clear and concise message spread through art.

Protests over Jil Love's artivism have reached millions and gone viral around the world and her images have appeared in major newspapers and magazines such as Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Huffington Post, LA Times, Grazia Magazine, Art Tour International, Art Sheep, Le Monde and so on ...

Jil uses her body, sometimes naked, as a canvas where she transmits a clear message of vulnerability, showing, revealing and exposing the wounds of humanity and the world. Vulnerability is for DaVida, the state in which we are most powerful. Showing your truth through your body and creative force is a state of love and compassion for who we are. and that allows us to make deeper connections. Vulnerability comes from the Latin "vulnus", which means wound. We need courage and lack of judgment to show our wounds.

She has published a second book in 2021 while living in Mexico; "Artivist Priestess". She now resides in Mexico City where she's back into filmmaking with her new and controversial movie about Divine Priestesshood in the modern days...
